Omnitrax's Carlton Trail Railway is still running, Prince Albert is their main base of operations.  The ex-CN roundhouse is still in use, complete with an operating air-powered turntable.  

Carlton Trail interchanges with CN in Saskatoon.  

The only rail access to Prince Albert is from the south, on the ex-CN line to Warman (CN still owns the section from Warman to Saskatoon).  All others have been abandoned or mothballed, I believe the rail is still in place from Prince Albert to Melfort but except for car storage near PA it has not been used for many years.

Greetings from Alberta
